Hope you weren't too interested in the box of chocolates, because it's time to ruin your day!
Here is a relic of St. Valentine. To be specific, his noggin'.
The tissue paper is a nice touch.
Really, if you think about it, this is actually a very accurate doctrinal assessment of a protestant theory of mediation and intercession.
Also, ugly.
Nothing gross about a relic, although I seriously doubt they have the actual skull of St. Valentine. The other stuff? Nasty.
ReplyDeleteWell, here's the deal, a little fragment in a reliquary isn't gross, a whole skull wearing a head band of roses...now we are entering a whole other territory. Put that on display with flowers wrapped in pink tissue paper. We have hit the jackpot.
